Why is GMP important? 
We at Pharmatech 2000 Inc. recognize that Manufacturers have an essential responsibility to substantiate the safety and efficacy of the dietary ingredients they use in manufacturing a product.
Dietary supplements manufactured in non-regulated locations have been recalled because of microbiological, pesticide, and heavy metal contamination - adulteration that might be prevented through a uniform set of manufacturing requirements.
Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) are the basic principles of operation a food processor should follow to produce a consistent, quality food product and are the basis of HACCP pre-requisite programs.
There are eight areas of GMPs:
- Premises – Building exterior, interior, water supply and sanitary facilities;
- Transportation and Storage – Transportation carriers and conditions, storage facilities and conditions;
- Equipment – Preventative maintenance and calibration;
- Personnel – Training for hygiene and handling, sanitation, maintenance, written policies and programs;
- Manufacturing Controls – Testing for the parameters of product (e.g. pH, water activity etc.);
- Sanitation and Pest Control – written programs for pest control and sanitation standard operating procedures (SSOPs);
- Recall – A written program or protocol for a mock recall to test systems effectiveness;
- Records – Records to prove all the procedures are being completed including: production, distribution and shipping, testing records, etc.
